So pretty and enjoyed your info about dragonflies….on the science side, dragonflies experience up to 4g (force) when they fly fast and when they take a corner at top speed, they experience up to 9g. Most humans, including some fighter pilots, pass out at just 5g! Dragonflies are experts when it comes to withstanding the effects of hyper gravity. Amazing creatures….thank you for the video today Barbara ❤
Good morning Barbara,I loved this video. Every technique you add was perfect . It just made it perfect . Blessings to you and your family. From Canada 🇨🇦 🍁🇨🇦 with love . ❤️
The sketchy outlines at the end were the perfect finishing touch, along with the sewing! And if you dont sew, you can do those lines sketchy with a pen, as well.
I have come to love Dragonflies so much (because of you), thank you for this inspirational piece! Just wanted to let you know i also finally created my very first soft cover ringbinder, having wanted to make one ever since Dephemerember 2023! I love it so much!!! And i caught myself filling it up with pages inspired by all kinds of craft projects you have shared with us, so I really want to thank you for all the inspirations! Wishing lots of continued succes and fun to you and this channel 💕
Love how that turned out, from the glowy background to the dragonflies to the tears & everything else. Amazing to see the napkin & background at the start & what you ended up with. Would definitely make a beautiful card! And there’s nothing to say you can’t take a page from an art journal & make it into a card when you need one 🤷♀️ 🤗💕Carrie
Love this!! Every time I watch a video of yours, I realize I NEED new crafting supplies! Gelli printing is something I have never done....nor do I have the supplies to do it right now but it is on the list of "must haves"!! Thanks for sharing this awesome project! I love the colours!
How beautiful! And I just love those napkins, with the perfect colors. Everything about this screams “Barbara!”.😂 Which means it also screams “Amazing!”. Thank you for sharing this gorgeous inspiration. Hugs ❤️🤗
So Beautiful.🥰😍 I really like this xl journal. I've finally made my own soft cover. 🤸 Thank you so much for all the amazing inspiration.❤ You are the best!
I want to be like you when I grow up! When I am crafting, I am constantly saying to myself, “What would Barbara do now? Would she add another element? “ I just am in such awe watching you experiment and keep adding/doing more to each thing that you share.
Beautiful. Wonderful idea! The most important qualities: K - Knowledge I - Idyllic N - Namesta D - Dazzled N - Nurturing E - Eloquent S - Sacrosanct S - Sanguine - Lala Gamma Huge hugs. Namaste 🐞🐞🐞
Oh my gosh Barbara, somehow you have got me completely addicted to GOLD lol. I've never in my life liked gold, I've always been a silver person and now I'm putting gold on everything and it is your fault 😂. Thanks for the video, I love dragonflies so this was fun to watch you do this project. Big big hugs from me in Oregon USA
I've recently put gold paint on gelli prints, tags, a paint pouring project, gold on all three paint pours lol, gold on my collage master boards, on a card I made last week AND lots of gold on my rolladex cards I've been making 😮😂😊
So pretty. Dragonflies are my favorite insects. My favorite are the pink ones. They are so beautiful. Sadly they don't live in my state. However U was blessed last time I was in Florida. I went to a state park that had a few ponds in it. At each one of the ponds there were several pink dragonflies flying around. It was such a beautiful site. Of course I took pictures. I enlarged one and hung it up in my living room.
❤this dragonfly napkin,it is beautiful. Dragonflies fascinate me! You do such lovely work thank you.i plan to watch why you named your videos 49 dragonflies.
Barbara, thank you for another inspiring video. I've decoupaged with napkins before but never in my journal. Now, I have a new challenge. That is what is so great about your channel. I'm always challenged. Would not attempt these techniques without your walk throughs.
You can lightly paint just the back side of the dragonflies only with white, let the paint dry and then collage them like normal, this will make them show up. ❤
Oops, normal brush is definitely safer! Ooh I love that blue shimmer spray 😍. As soon as the ink and sewing went on and framed it, it became so 'Barbara '🤘. It turned out lovely😍 and you are loved! Tfs and have a great day 💖💖💖
Barbara, this is an awesome tutorial in that I have the gelli prints and napkins but then tend to not know how to take them to that next level. A very sincere thank you! x
Barbara I love you too. What a beautiful art project. I do love the dragonfly too. I want to make a wire dragonfly. Maybe today. I think I also have that napkin going to go check. Love how this turned out. Beautiful hugs🩵💛🩵💛
Hi Barbara. I couldn't watch any YT for a couple of weeks due to illness, and this is the first video I watched when I got back on YT. Wow, what a great video to come back to. I enjoyed every moment and I love the final piece. Great stuff!! TFS. Love 💕💕
The only napkins I ever see are super ugly boring ones! I guess I need to shop at better places LOL. Thanks for the video! Everyone don't forget to like and comment to help boost her crafty algorithm

So interesting! 😊❤️
LOVED it when you decided to messy-sketch around the dragonflies...made the whole picture perfect
Love this! The white splatters really made the white outline make sense.
👏👏👏sehr gelungene Arbeit 👍😁liebe Grüße Petra ❤️

Beautiful pocket. Love the shimmer. The white splatters and sketchy outlines elevated the dragonflies.
This turned out beautifully Barbara. I love the colours, and the torn edges and mounting on the blue bookpage really made it stand out. ❤

Aaaaw! Thank you so much! ❤️
Glad you had fun. The card stock looked more like periwinkle than denim. We love you too!❤❤
Barbara: just love it! Every time I think you’re done, you add a little something that makes it perfect. Carol from California

You made a lovely piece from this gorgeous gifted tissue. Perfect for you. Thank you, Barbara.
That turned out really CUTE! The added background really helped pull it together for me.
Beautiful! I love dragonflies. We don’t see them very often so it’s special when we do.
This turned out so beautifully! The napkin blended perfectly!
Oh Barbara, love the way you did this and the explanation of Dragonflies was what I needed!!! Thank you ❤
Beautiful dragonflies turned into a gorgeous piece of art! ❤
Another winner, Barbara. Love this addition to your art journal. ❤

Love the sketchy outlines. So many cool layers.
Beautiful!!! Our bedroom is yellow and gray with pops of turquoise. Off to Etsy to find some napkins to play with! So fun!
Barbara, thank you for another inspiring video. I've decoupaged with napkins before but never in my journal. Now, I have a new challenge. That is what is so great about your channel. I'm always challenged. Would not attempt these techniques without your walk throughs.
Thank you and have fun! 😊❤️
Lovely, its always is interesting to watch you make the different layers to complete your project!
I just finished the cover and signatures for my XL art journal today! Now, it’s time to play. I’ll have to be brave and dive into new processes.
So pretty! I think napkins need to come back into projects more.
Love this! I have so many napkins. I really need to do more with them. Thanks for the inspiration!❤
